Forecasts

Jet Plane (1/1), Golden Son (4/1), Slipway (4/1), Time Leader (5/1), Paul Marvel (15/2), Good Boy Bobby (8/1), Franco De Port (18/1), One True King (18/1), Haven't Time (33/1), D'jango (50/1)

The most solid option is JET PLANE, who brings strong recent handicap chase form to the table and he was runner-up in the Foxhunters at Aintree last season. If Good Boy Bobby resumes in good heart he will be a threat, along with Slipway and Golden Son, if he's on a going day. Franco de Port would be the clear pick if there were any guarantees in terms of how much ability he retains but there can be no such assurances following such a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
